iPhone X - please keep the status bar visible

iPhone X - please keep the status bar visible

First of all - thanks a lot for the iPhone X update. It looks great now! One request - please don't hide the status bar on iPhone X when user is in the cover art mode (playing a track). Apple Music doesn't do that either, there's enough space for your content and it would also look fine if you had the status bar visible.

 

Apple iPhone X guidelines also recommend to avoid hiding the status bar on iPhone X:

If your app currently hides the status bar, reconsider that decision for iPhone X. The display height on iPhone provides more vertical space for content than the displays of 4.7" iPhones, and the status bar occupies an area of the screen your app probably won't fully utilize. The status bar also displays information people find useful. It should only be hidden in exchange for added value.
